What is BS EN 61340-5-1:2016 ?

Title: What is BS EN 61340-5-1:2016 and How Does it Relate to BS EN 62196-2:2017?

Introduction:

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a common problem in the field of electrical devices. When electrical equipment, such as computers and smartphones, comes into contact with an electrostatic discharge source, such as a static electricity field, it can cause damage to the device's electronic components. This is where BS EN 61340-5-1:2016 comes in.

BS EN 61340-5-1:2016 is a standard issued by the British Standards Institution (BSI) that provides guidelines and requirements to prevent damage to electronic devices caused by ESD. The standard is designed to protect a wide range of electronic devices, including computers, smartphones, and other electrical equipment, from the effects of ESD.

BS EN 62196-2:2017 is another important standard that is related to ESD control in the field of electrical vehicles (EVs). This standard, "Plugs, socket-outlets, vehicle connectors and vehicle inlets – Conductive charging of electric vehicles – Part 2: Dimensional compatibility and interchangeability requirements for a.c. pin and contact-tube accessories," is part of a comprehensive series of European standards that address various aspects of EV charging.

Dimensional compatibility and interchangeability requirements for alternating current (a.c.) pin and contact-tube accessories used in EV charging systems are defined in BS EN 62196-2:2017. The primary objective of this standard is to ensure interoperability between EV charging infrastructure components, regardless of the manufacturer.

This article will provide an in-depth technical understanding of both BS EN 61340-5-1:2016 and BS EN 62196-2:2017. It will explore the key aspects of each standard, its significance, and its implications for industries that rely on EVs, such as the automotive and IT industries.
